Coughing clip clopping sound

[JCpiggy]

Hi All,

One of of our Guinea pigs makes a strange noise, she has always done it, but i'm now wondering what it is as none of the others make the sound.

It sounds very similar to when us humans make clip clop sounds with our tongue......is she coughing?

Are you sure your piggie isnt 'chirping' have a look on here and see if it sounds the same?

Thinking about it again, are you sure its not a 'chut' sound your hearing?

I don't think so. I have Just listened to a recording of that, and chutting seems to go on longer?

It is literally like if you put your tongue at the roof of your mouth, suck it and make a "popping" sound.....I don't really know how else to explain it.

She has always done it, and has been to vet for 3 check ups, all fine. So I'm not worried about her health, just curious!
